Literally sprouting from the unruly backyard of would-be Chief Executive Officer Alejandro Sobrera’s backyard, the Gnomies Inc. dream was birthed during the bright and sunny summer of the year 2013. CEO Alejandro had been tending to his mother’s garden as an ironic punishment (since it soon turned out to be a major selling inspiration) when a brief vision of what would become the Gnomies Inc. of today had struck him unwarned.
The Sobrera garden was quite a sight to behold—grass creeping inches above Alejandro’s knee, weeds littering the debauched jungle’s floor, insects feeding off of whatever remnants of edible greenery that still managed to live. Horrified to even think of where to begin the garden beautification, Alejandro’s first thought was what had started this very phantasmagorical project: “Why isn’t there a technology that can tend to gardens and backyards so that I can do something more personally satisfying with my free time?”
Not too many months later, Alejandro’s curiosity came to fruition as he strove to answer his own question. Finding tutelage under the wings of notorious business advisor, Michael Rylaarsdam, Alejandro dug for the dream team to make the “technology that can tend to gardens and backyards.”
On the historic, autumnal Monday, September 23, 2013, Alejandro found his dream team which consisted of thirty-one capable innovators that were ready to shake the modern world of technology and garden-keeping under the common philosophy of “Every backyard needs a buddy.”
Together, Gnomies Inc. was finally created and ready to begin its new global mission: to increase your personal leisure time through the creation of unique, technologically advanced products that would handle time-consuming outdoor maintenance tasks for you—like chopping down that long abandoned three feet tall grass.
